The 17-year-old struck out six and retired the last eight batters he faced. He was taken out after reaching his pitch limit of 55. The No. 28 pick in this year's draft has posted a solid 1.29 ERA over five outings with 17 strikeouts and three walks. Soroka relies mostly on his fastball but can also mix in a slider and a changeup.

Pirates OF prospect Willy Garcia notched four hits including a homer and two doubles in Saturday's game for Triple-A Indianapolis.

It was Garcia's first four-hit game of the season. Garcia began the year on a torrid hot streak for Double-A Altoona but has slowed down a bit since coming to Triple-A (.248 AVG in 145 at-bats). The 22-year-old has followed up last year's 18-homer campaign with just eight blasts in 2015. Though talented, Garcia remains a work in progress.

Carter Capps was forced to leave Sunday's game against the Padres with right elbow stiffness.

The injury is believed to be minor, and the Marlins are listing the hard-throwing right-hander as day-to-day. He owns an outstanding 1.16 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 58/7 K/BB ratio in just 31 innings on the season.

Kris Bryant left Sunday's game against the Brewers with an apparent injury to his head/neck area.

Bryant injured himself on a head-first slide into second base. He was able to walk off the field under his own power and looked to be OK, so perhaps the Cubs were just being cautious here. They should offer more on the third baseman's status later Sunday.

Indians SS prospect Ronny Rodriguez launched a pair of solo home runs Saturday in a win for Double-A Akron.

Rodriguez has hit .517 over his seven-game hitting streak with four homers and eight RBI. The 23-year-old seems to have turned a page. After hitting .247 in his first two seasons with Akron, Rodriguez has improved his average to .306 this year with career-highs in slugging (.565) and OPS (.887).

He's raised his batting average from .258 to .270 over the last three games. The 21-year-old has crushed 62 homers since the start of 2013 including 14 this season. Nunez has done a much better job in the second half, hitting .328 with a .527 slugging percentage. He only hit .228 in 184 first half at-bats.
